I work in an area where it’s impossible to record their behavior, and since there were so many people doing it snitching wasn’t an option. They were smart enough to only “joke” when management was within earshot and resume actual harassment when they left.

I still work with that same group, funny enough they went back to being buddy-buddy once I got vaccinated and was able to drop the mask.

I have forgiven them in the sense that I don’t think about it when I interact with them, but now I know how selfish they are and how they’d happily push me into a wood chipper if it meant they could avoid having to wear a small piece of fabric on their face.

Honestly, therapy. I basically had the same reaction when my coworkers, who i thought were pretty alright, would cough in my general direction and say survival of the fittest because I was wearing a mask during peak covid. I had a lung condition that put me at high risk, and I told them that… And that lead them to be even more hostile to me, openly saying they hoped I’d get covid and die off quickly.

I struggled with the fact that people can turn on you so fast, and that people couldn’t do the minimum effort to prevent someone they know from dying. We used to be cool, pretty often we went out to eat and hung out outside of work hours, then in the span of a couple months they were practically verbally assaulting me every day. I talked to a therapist and it really helped. I barely remember what they told me since it was years ago now, but it got me through it and I rarely think about it now.

There is one other thing you buy a company for, and it’s to remove them from the market. I’m fully convinced that if he had any goal, it was to completely wreck Twitter as fast as possible without drawing everyone to that conclusion.

It’s literally the only thing he has done with the company, drive it further and further into a right wing cesspit that high value advertisers want nothing to do with.

I’m not convinced that he had any goals, he made a meme joke offer during a manic episode and tried to back out of it but was caught by his own need for public ridicule.

Toasting to the new year?

I didn’t say I think it’s a good thing, just that the truck guy probably think it is.

It’s supposed to be a good thing. I don’t get the context of the stickers either unless it’s just supposed to be a useless explanation of the situation.

Imma leave this here since they put it quite nicely. https://lemmy.sdf.org/comment/6818226

Also, just read their username and you’ll see it’s clearly exactly what we all think it is.

There’s a really good book that helped me put my own realizations into more concrete terms.

And this book literally changed how I view behavior and how to permanently change behavior: https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/22544758-triggers

I’m aware that 90% of memes are fake or extreme versions of a half truth… but it’s fun to play along and call OP a moron for encouraging their mom to buy crypto.

I used Smart Audiobook Player to listen to an audiobook recently and it worked great.

This is a good tool for visualizing your raid needs from your capacity and total number of drives.

I’ll preface that I’m no raid expert, just a nerd that uses it occasionally.

The main benefit of most raid configurations is the redundancy they provide. If you lose one drive, you do not lose any data. It’s kinda obvious how you can have 1:1 redundancy, you just have an exact copy of the drive. But there are ways to split data into three chunks so that you can rebuild the data from any two chunks, and 5 chunks so that you can loose and two chunks. Truly understand how raid does this could easily be an entire college course.

Raid 0 is the exception. All it does is “join together” a bunch of drives into one disk. And if you lose an individual disk you likely will lose most of your data.

Another big difference is read/write speed. From my understanding, every raid configuration is slower to read and write than if you were using a single drive. Each raid configuration is varying levels of slower than the “base speed”

I typically use raid 5 or 6, since that gives some redundancy, but I can keep most of my total storage space.

The main thing in all of this is to keep an eye on drive health. If you lose more drives than your array can handle, all of your data is gone. From my understanding, there is no easy way to get the data off a broken raid array.

He might be, but I still get unpleasant vibes from how he writes.

Yeah, I’d rather not if he talks like he writes. Again, I am fully on board with his message, but he writes like someone who doesn’t know how to have a conversation with another person.

This writer seems like a proper neck beard. I 100% agree with most of what they say, but this feels like it’s straight out of 4chann

Edit: I read a few other articles of his and watch a few of his videos/interviews. This article is an extreme side of him apparently. I still think he is extremely socially awkward, he can’t hold eye contact for longer than a millisecond and struggles to answer questions in less than twenty words.

I do fully agree with almost everything I’ve heard him say. I just don’t like the way he says it.

the difference is so small you can barely tell

Guess you could say it’s pretty fucking close.

You’re right, that would be more technically correct.

Technically it’d need to be:

mormon / 2m = oron

Are they fucking morons

Close, they are mormons fucking

My understanding is that the more removed you are from the “top” of the government pyramid, the less you are affected by disruptions of that position. Largely when a new face or party takes over (by force or otherwise) very seldom do they want to rebuild everything from the ground up and will keep most of the bipartisan offices untouched.

If a very violent coup is successful and they’re planning punishments for all “government officials” the postman in a rural village is going to be pretty low on that list.

Gotta say, I agree with your main point… But that is kinda the thing people point at when saying the government is inefficient. The large parts of the US infrastructure is decades past it’s expected lifespan, and the US government is not allocating enough funds to fix it quickly enough.
